Iran’s Rouhani condemns Floyd’s ‘brutal’ killing, slams Trump for Bible photo op-The Times of Israel-Officials in Tehran continue to seize on unrest in US in order to turn finger normally pointed at them for Islamic Republic’s brutal crackdowns on US authorities instead-By Agencies-june 4,20-Today, 3:09 pm
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani on Thursday called George Floyd’s killing “brutal” and criticized US President Donald Trump for posing for photos while holding a Bible.Rouhani in a televised speech said Floyd “was killed in the most brutal way.”“We express sympathy toward the American people who are on the streets while harshly condemning the crime,” he said, referring to Floyd’s death after a white police officer was caught on video pressing his knee to Floyd’s neck.Rouhani also made reference to the clearing of peaceful protesters from a park outside the White House with chemical agents and flash bang grenades so that Trump could walk to a church for a photo opportunity.“It is a shame that the president stands with a Bible when he plans to act against his people,” Rouhani said.US President Donald Trump holds a Bible as he visits St. John’s Church near Lafayette Park across from the White House in Washington, June 1, 2020. (AP/Patrick Semansky)-Iranian officials regularly take advantage of protests in the US to criticize the administration, even though Iran itself in November put down nationwide demonstrations by killing hundreds, arresting thousands and disrupting internet access.Iranian state television has repeatedly aired images of the US unrest.The comment came a day after Iran’s supreme leader said Floyd’s killing shows the “true face” of the United States and its oppression of the peoples of the world, including its own.“The fact that a policeman has cold-bloodedly pressed his knee on the throat of a black man until he died and that other policemen watched on without doing anything is nothing knew,” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said in a televised speech.Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei addresses the nation in a televised speech marking the anniversary of the 1989 death of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the leader of the 1979 Islamic Revolution, in Tehran, Iran, June 3, 2020. (Office of the Iranian Supreme Leader via AP)-“It is the true face of America, it’s what it has always done all over the world — in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and other countries, and before that in Vietnam. It is the normal course of action of the United States, it’s the true face of their regime,” Khamenei said.“These are realities that have always been camouflaged or hidden, but they are not new,” he said in a speech on the 31st anniversary of the death of his predecessor, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.Protests sparked by Floyd’s killing by a white police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, have raged across the United States for a week and US President Donald Trump has ordered the military to intervene.The once-in-a-generation unrest has coincided with the world’s deadliest coronavirus outbreak in the United States.US demonstrators, who had gathered to protest the death of George Floyd, begin to run fromtear gas used by police to clear the street near the White House in Washington, Monday, June 1, 2020. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci)-Epidemiologists have voiced concern that the thousands of people protesting at close quarters, coughing violently when hit by police tear gas, will lead to a new upsurge in infections.“Thank God, (US leaders) have already been discredited by their actions — their handling of the coronavirus has discredited and shamed them around the world,” Khamenei said of the 106,000 deaths from COVID-19 already registered in the United States.Iran had itself faced strong criticism from the US when it was reeling from one of the world’s highest COVID-19 death tolls earlier this year.As of Wednesday, Iran’s health ministry declared a total of 8,012 deaths, although that figure has been dismissed by some as under-reported, including by Washington.Tensions between Tehran and Washington escalated sharply in 2018, after Trump unilaterally withdrew the US from a landmark nuclear agreement and reimposed crippling sanctions.

DC paints huge Black Lives Matter mural near White House-[Associated Press]-BEN FOX-June 5, 2020
WASHINGTON (AP) — City workers and activists painted the words Black Lives Matter in enormous bright yellow letters on the street leading to the White House, a highly visible sign of the District of Columbia's embrace of a protest movement that has put it at odds with President Donald Trump.D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser tweeted aerial video of the mural shortly after it was completed Friday. The letters and an image of the city's flag stretch across 16th Street for two blocks, ending just before the church where Trump staged a photo-op after federal officers forcibly cleared a peaceful demonstration to make way for the president and his entourage.“The section of 16th street in front of the White House is now officially ‘Black Lives Matter Plaza,’” Bowser tweeted. A black and white sign was put up to mark the change.Bowser's endorsement of the project follows her verbal clashes with the Trump administration over the response to protests of the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Bowser has complained about the heavy-handed federal response and called for the removal of out-of-state National Guard troops. She says their differences highlight the need for D.C. to be a state and have more control over its internal affairs.n Thursday, as the protests turned peaceful, she ended a curfew imposed after people damaged buildings and broke into businesses over the weekend and Monday.The mayor also tweeted out a letter from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who wrote the president to express alarm that peaceful protesters were being confronted by heavily armed federal agents and officers, many of them with their identities and agencies obscured.

Settler leader says annexation plan like being forced to eat cake at gunpoint-The Times of Israel-Other settler chiefs said calling for his resignation-Day after coming under fire for criticizing Trump, David Elhayani says he has a duty to speak out against what he sees as an ‘existential threat’ posed by the US peace proposal-By TOI staff-Today, 2:44 pm
A top settler leader on Thursday compared the pressure from Washington and Jerusalem to accept the Trump Administration’s peace plan to being force-fed cake on pain of severe bodily harm.Jordan Valley Regional Council head David Elhyani has been leading settler opposition to the US plan, which includes annexation of wide swaths of the West Bank but leaves open the possibility of a Palestinian state.Speaking to Army Radio a day after being rebuked by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for speaking out against the plan, Elhayani said he had no choice but to warn Israel about what he sees as a dangerous proposal.“If someone comes to me with a cake while holding a gun to my head will I just take some cake and then say goodbye?” he said. “My duty is to save us from the existential threats.”Elhayani, who chairs the Yesha umbrella council of settlement mayors, rebuffed accusations that he was being ungrateful to Washington as it offers to recognize sovereignty, telling the station he was concerned not just for the safety of Israeli settlements in the Jordan Valley or other areas of the West Bank, but for the safety of all of Israel’s citizens.His comments have prompted some other settler leaders to call for his resignation, Channel 13 reported, with an internal Whatsapp group of settler chiefs featuring several bitter criticisms of his comments and and accusations that he was “humiliating” the settlers.US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, left, and US ambassador to Israel David Friedman stand next to the dedication plaque at the US embassy in Jerusalem on March 21, 2019. (Jim Young/Pool/AFP)-Elhayani also doubled down on his remarks about President Donald Trump from the day before, in which he told the Haaretz daily that Trump and his senior adviser Jared Kushner have shown through their peace proposal that “they are not friends of the State of Israel.”While he conceded there was no doubt that Trump has “done wonderful things for Israel,” such as moving the US embassy to Jerusalem, recognizing Israeli sovereignty over Golan, and acting against the Iranians, the establishment of a Palestinian state is, Elhayani said, unacceptable.If Trump wants to establish a Palestinian state near the heart of Israel, between Jordan and the Mediterranean Sea, he said, addressing the US president, “then you are not a friend.”Such a state, he stressed, “is a danger to Israel.”Elhayani warned that as soon as Israel extended sovereignty to some areas it would effectively be recognizing the borders of a future Palestinian state and that Washington intended to build on that development to implement the rest of the peace plan.“It is a plan for division [of the territory],” he said.“We must not give any chance for the establishment of a Palestinian state,” he said, and clarified that he was prepared to give up on Israeli sovereignty over some areas of the West Bank if it meant preventing a Palestinian state.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. left, US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman, center, and then-Tourism Minister Yariv Levin during a meeting to discuss mapping extension of Israeli sovereignty to areas of the West Bank, held in the Ariel settlement, February 24, 2020. (David Azagury/US Embassy Jerusalem)-Elhayani’s comments to Haaretz had drawn harsh rebuke from Netanyahu and other right-wing leaders.“I strongly condemn the words of the Yesha Council chairman,” Netanyahu said in a statement that insisted that “President Trump is a great friend of the State of Israel.”“President Trump’s vision for peace includes [a requirement of the Palestinians] to recognize Israel as a Jewish state, Israeli security control throughout the territory west of Jordan, a unified Jerusalem, the disarming of Hamas, ending the right of return [for Palestinian] refugees to enter Israel, and more,” he said. Hamas is a Palestinian terror group that rules in the Gaza Strip.“It is unfortunate that, instead of gratitude, there is someone who is trying to deny this friendship, which has never been better,” Netanyahu added.Netanyahu’s comments echo what one settler leader told The Times of Israel had been the message relayed to him by American officials. He said Washington had been disappointed by the “ingratitude” demonstrated by West Bank mayors campaigning against the peace plan.An Israeli-US mapping committee has for the past several months has been working to delineate the exact parts of the West Bank territory over which Washington is prepared to recognize Israeli sovereignty.Elhayani and nearly a dozen other settler leaders have been insisting on seeing the map before it is finalized in order to influence how the borders will be drawn.They have taken particular issue with the conceptual map introduced at the Trump plan’s January unveiling in Washington, which depicted 15 isolated Israeli settlements as enclaves surrounded by land earmarked for the future Palestinian state. The Palestinians have rejected the entire Trump plan outright.A Palestinian shepherd herds his flock near the Israeli settlement of Argaman, in the Jordan Valley, a strip of West Bank land along the border with Jordan, Monday, Dec. 26, 2016. (AP Photo/Oded Balilty)-Separately Wednesday, another prominent settler leader, who asked not to be named, told The Times of Israel that he and his colleagues are prepared to “blow up” Netanyahu’s plan to annex their towns in the West Bank if the premier persists in refusing to share the joint US-Israeli committee’s map.The US administration is highly unlikely to approve an Israeli move to unilaterally annex parts of the West Bank by the July 1 date envisioned by Netanyahu, a well-placed source told The Times of Israel on Wednesday.In fact, it could take weeks and possibly months before the joint US-Israel mapping committee concludes its work, which the White House has declared a precondition that must be met before it would give a green light for annexation, the source said.
Israeli pilgrims visit Nablus shrine despite end of PA security cooperation-The Times of Israel-No irregular incidents reported as 150 people take part in monthly prayer service at Joseph’s Tomb inside Palestinian-controlled area-By TOI staff-june 4,20-Today, 11:29 am
Some 150 Israelis overnight Wednesday visited Joseph’s Tomb, a holy site located inside an area of the West Bank under full Palestinian control, despite the Palestinian Authority declaring last month that it was ending all security cooperation with Israel.The pilgrims were escorted, as usual, by Israeli soldiers, the military said. The Israel Defense Forces said there were “no irregular incidents” during the visit and prayer service, the first held there since February.There were, however, light clashes nearby between Palestinian rioters, who threw rocks, and IDF troops, who responded with less lethal riot dispersal weapons.Palestinian security forces who protect the compound, just outside Nablus, left the site before the Israeli group arrived and then returned ten minutes after they had gone, the Ynet website reported. They arrived just in time to prevent a group of Palestinians from setting fire to the building, the report said.Near monthly visits to the tomb by Israelis are permitted by the IDF and are carried out under heavy armed guard.The visit was the first since the end of Israel’s strict coronavirus restrictions and the first since Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas announced he was ending security cooperation with Israel, though questions have arisen over the extent to which coordination has actually been frozen.PA President Mahmoud Abbas heads a leadership meeting at his headquarters, in the West Bank city of Ramallah, May 19, 2020. (Alaa Badarneh/Pool via AP)On May 21, Abbas declared that the PA was “absolved” of all agreements and understandings with Israel and the US. Abbas said his statement was in response to repeated Israeli violations of those agreements, including the planned unilateral annexation of parts of the West Bank by Israel, and that his security forces were cutting ties with the Israeli military.The claim has since proven to be overstated, as some degree of coordination has continued despite the dramatic announcement, though to a lesser extent than normal.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has insisted he will go ahead with plans to extend Israeli sovereignty to settlements and the Jordan Valley — some 30 percent of the West Bank — from July 1.The move would be coordinated with the United States, in accordance with a Middle East plan US President Donald Trump unveiled in January, which endorsed extending Israeli sovereignty over these parts of the West Bank.However, there are signs a short delay might be in the offing.US approval depends on the completion of a mapping process being carried out by a joint Israeli-US team, and a source has told The Times of Israel that it is “highly unlikely” that the process will be done by July 1. The source said it could be delayed by weeks or even months.In addition, European countries, as well as Arab nations with which Israel does not have formal ties, have also warned Israel against the consequences of annexation.The Palestinians have rejected the entire Trump peace proposal.Thousands of religious Jews visit the Joseph’s Tomb holy site in the West Bank city of Nablus on September 17, 2018. (Israel Defense Forces)-Joseph’s Tomb is located inside Area A of the West Bank, which is officially under complete Palestinian Authority control, though the Israeli military conducts activities there. The IDF bars Israeli citizens from entering Area A without prior authorization.The site is venerated by Jews, Christians and Muslims, and has often been a flashpoint for sectarian violence. Jewish pilgrims are usually only allowed to visit the tomb once a month under heavy armed guard. During these visits, Palestinians routinely throw rocks at the troops, and sometimes attack them with Molotov cocktails and gunfire.Visits to the site, which in the past have drawn over 1,000 pilgrims, were halted after February due to lockdown measures banning public gatherings during the coronavirus pandemic. As infection rates dwindled, many restrictions have lifted.Screenshot from the fire started by Palestinian rioters at Joseph’s Tomb in Nablus, in the West Bank, on October 16, 2015.In 2015 a large group of Palestinians set fire to the compound containing Joseph’s Tomb. Palestinian Authority security forces dispersed the hundred-strong crowd and managed to douse the fire at the tomb, believed to contain the remains of the biblical patriarch Joseph, Hebrew media reported at the time.There have been other incidents of arson and vandalism at the site, including major damage by Palestinian rioters in 2000.Earlier this week, an Israeli court convicted a former Palestinian police officer for opening fire in 2011 on a group of Israelis who had visited the site without coordination. One man was killed.Judah Ari Gross contributed to this report.

Serbia adopts anti-Semitism definition including anti-Israel hate-The Times of Israel-Education Ministry website says International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition will provide a practical guide for identifying and collecting data on anti-Semitic incidents-By Cnaan Liphshiz-june 5,20-Today, 11:26 am
JTA — The Education Ministry of Serbia has added to its website a definition of anti-Semitism that includes some examples of hatred against Israel.The ministry uploaded the definition of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, or IHRA, to the site on April 30.On Monday, the Israeli Embassy in Belgrade offered its congratulations on Twitter to the Serbian government “for adopting the IHRA definition.”Serbia is a close ally of Russia, which has not adopted the definition.Eleven countries have been said to adopt the definition.In France, the adoption was put to a vote, which was passed in December. In the United Kingdom, the government announced in 2016 that it was adopting the measure.The definition states that some forms of vitriol against Israel, including comparing it to Nazi Germany and denying the Jewish people’s right to self determination, are examples of anti-Semitism, though criticizing Israel’s policies is not.“The purpose of this document is to provide a practical guide for identifying and collecting data on anti-Semitic incidents,” the Serbian Education Ministry’s website reads.Pro-Palestinian activists oppose the IHRA definition, claiming it prevents criticism of Israel’s policies or unduly limits free speech.The definition features mostly examples of anti-Semitic behaviors unconnected to Israel, such as calling to harm Jews or denying the Holocaust.Manifestations of anti-Semitism, the new definition reads, “might include the targeting of the State of Israel, conceived as a Jewish collectivity,” though “criticism of Israel similar to that leveled against any other country cannot be regarded as anti-Semitic.”

Iraq’s Jewish sites almost all ruined beyond repair, new heritage report finds-The Times of Israel-Urgent relief could save 4 of Iraq's most vital Jewish sites-More than half sites in Syria also in terrible condition or worse; neglect and redevelopment blamed, after repression and emigration decimated Jewish life in the 2 countries-By Robert Philpot-june 5,20-Today, 4:08 pm
The location and condition of over 350 Jewish heritage sites in Iraq and Syria have been identified by a major new research project. But most of them are said to be ruined or nearly so, often because of neglect or redevelopment work.The 18-month study conducted by the Jewish Cultural Heritage Initiative (JCHI) catalogues and assesses sites from antiquity to the present day in once-vibrant centers of Jewish life in the Middle East.But an accompanying report published this month warns that nearly 90 percent of the sites in Iraq – and more than half of those in Syria – are beyond repair or in a very bad condition.It also identifies four Iraqi sites where it believes “emergency relief” could be critical to preserving them. They include the last functioning synagogue in the country and a Baghdad cemetery where the remains of Jews who were publicly hanged in the 1960s on charges of spying for Israel are buried.The JCHI is a collaboration between the London-based Foundation for Jewish Heritage and the American Schools of Oriental Research. The study was led by Dr. Darren Ashby and Dr. Susan Penacho of the US institution’s Cultural Heritage Initiatives. The research team used desk-based, satellite and on-the-ground assessments.Jewish community life in Iraq and Syria – which stretched back 2,600 years to the time of Babylon – was decimated by harsh repression and emigration in the second half of the 20th century, following the establishment of the State of Israel.However, the JCHI study argues that “a significant physical heritage remains.”Mosul, Iraq, synagogue as seen in a France 24 report from April 2019. (Youtube still)-The condition of the sites varies sharply between Iraq and Syria. In Iraq, researchers gave 89% of sites its lowest preservation rating of “no return” or determined that nothing definite could be found on its present state. The researchers believe the overwhelming majority of heritage sites classified as “no information” are likely to be in a very bad condition or beyond repair.In Syria, 53% of sites are tagged as “no return” or “no information.”Of the 11% confirmed as still standing in Iraq, nine sites are categorized as “poor” and 12% as “very bad”, the researchers say. Ten sites are listed as in a “fair” or “good” condition.”In Syria, 27 sites are tagged as being in a “fair” of “good” condition, while six are categorized as “poor” or “very bad.”In all, 68 Iraqi sites are deemed as “no return” and no information was available for 198 sites. In Syria, the respective figures were 32 sites and six sites.An undated image of Al-Bandara Synagogue or Central Synagogue of Aleppo, Syria. (public domain via Wikipedia)-“A distinct difference in preservation exists between Iraq and Syria,” argues the report. It notes that the 10 Iraq sites rated as “good” or “fair” represent “roughly a third the number of Syrian sites, despite the overall size of the Iraqi corpus being over three times the size of the Syrian one.”But, across both countries, says the report, “most of the heritage from the 19th and 20th centuries is in very bad condition or beyond repair, primarily due to neglect and urban redevelopment.”Researchers say that the project was “undertaken in a challenging environment” and admit that it does not represent “a fully comprehensive picture.” However, the 368 sites in the JCHI database, suggests the report, “represent a cross-section of Jewish built heritage in Iraq and Syria from the diaspora until the present day.”“The database includes the major buildings and settlements in both countries alongside a number of additional sites of regional and local significance,” it says.“At a time when there is so much attention on saving heritage in danger across the Middle East, this unique research has shone a light on a forgotten aspect – the remarkable ancient Jewish heritage of the region,” Michael Mail, chief executive of the Foundation for Jewish Heritage, suggested in a press statement.The Jewish community made a profound contribution and we need to ensure its heritage, and this story, is not erased“The Jewish community made a profound contribution and we need to ensure its heritage, and this story, is not erased,” Mail added.The research lists 27 sites in both Iraq and Syria which are endangered because they are in a “poor” or “very bad” condition.Among the sites are two in Syria – the Bandara Synagogue in Aleppo and the Synagogue of the Prophet Elijah in Damascus – and one in Iraq – The Shrine of the Prophet Ezekiel in Al-Kifl – which researchers assess to be internationally significant. A further seven are listed as nationally significant and four regionally significant.The project identifies four sites as priority candidates for “emergency relief.” All are in Iraq due to the continuing Syrian civil war. In the case of each, the JCHI says, “urgent intervention could substantially improve their condition.”In this 1998 file photo, Tawfiq Safeer prepares for prayer in the synagogue of Baghdad, Saturday, March 21, 1998.

The synagogue, says the report, is also home to material from other synagogues and communal buildings that are now closed.The Jewish community in Iraq is now believed to number as few as 10, mostly elderly, people. Through intermediaries in Iraq, the JCHI was able to make contact with members of the Jewish community in Baghdad.The Meir Tweig Synagogue in Baghdad, seen behind a wall in Baghdad, Iraq on August 7, 2007. (AP Photo/Hadi Mizban)-Work on the synagogue, which is deemed to be in a “fair” condition, is “highly viable,” researchers believe.“The site is under the control of the Jewish community, which already has a list of preferred contractors that it has worked with on other projects,” the report says. But, it adds, “the main concern for the Jewish community is visibility. They do not want to draw attention to the synagogue’s location.”In this 1969 file photo: Sabah Haim and David Hazaquiel, both Jewish businessmen, after they had been hanged in Baghad, Iraq, on January 27, 1969, for being Israeli spies. (AP)-The three other priority sites selected by the JCHI include the Al-Habibiyah Jewish Cemetery in Baghdad. Established during the early 20th century, it has been the main location for Jewish burial in the city. Many local Jewish notables are interred there, including Jews who were publicly hanged in Baghdad in January 1969 for allegedly spying for Israel.The report says the cemetery is in a worse condition than the Meir Tweig synagogue. “The interior of the walled property is overgrown with vegetation in multiple places and the space is used as a dumping ground for trash by people on the adjacent properties. Many of the graves are in poor condition,” it notes.In northern Iraq, the research highlights two candidates for urgent work in an area of the country where significant post-conflict reconstruction work is underway.Mosul, Iraq, synagogue as seen in a France 24 report from April 2019. (Youtube still)-+Built in 1902, the Sasson Synagogue in Mosul was the main synagogue in the city during the 20th century thanks to its central location in the Jewish Quarter. Researchers believe that, though it is in a “very bad” condition, it is nonetheless the best-preserved Jewish heritage in Mosul.“The roof of the synagogue has collapsed in multiple places, exposing the interior decoration, including wall paintings, to weathering and increasing the risk that the rest of the standing architecture will fall,” write the researchers. “The property has also filled with trash and debris deposited in the building over the past decades. Further, looters have targeted the site, removing some Jewish cultural property.” ..

It dates back to at least the 12th century CE and was an important pilgrimage site for the Jewish community of both Mosul and the surrounding region, especially during Shavuot.The site consists of a central synagogue with the prophet’s tomb and a series of subsidiary buildings arranged around a courtyard.Tomb of the Jewish Prophet Nahum in Al-qosh, Iraq. (Chaldean, CC-BY-SA, via wikipedia)-Local Christians attempted to maintain the shrine after the departure of the Jewish community and it has also been the focus of international preservation efforts over the past decade. It is now deemed to be in a “poor” condition. However, after stabilization work was conducted in late 2017, a restoration project led by the Alliance for the Restoration of Cultural Heritage is commencing. It is supported financially by the US government, the Kurdish regional government and private donors.The researchers believe that, while many factors account for the higher levels of preservation in Syria than Iraq, “two interconnected factors stand out: government policy towards the Jewish population and the timing of Jewish emigration from the two countries.”In both Syria and Iraq, anti-Semitic violence and state repression provoked large-scale Jewish emigration following the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948.FILE – This Sunday, April 20, 2008, file photo, Syrian Jews celebrate Passover at the al-Firenj Synagogue in downtown Damascus, Syria. (AP Photo/Bassem Tellawi, File).For those Jews who remained in Syria “the level of repression fluctuated over time” and, by the mid-1970s, they were “largely left to manage their own religious, social and economic affairs.” However, tight restrictions on Jewish emigration were in place until the early 1990s.In Iraq, emigration was similarly restricted and banned altogether in 1952. But further emigration was allowed some 20 years earlier than in Syria, with much of the remaining Jewish community leaving the country in the early 1970s.“The different levels of repression and timelines of community departure impacted the preservation of Jewish built heritage,” says the report. “In Syria, a portion of the community was forcibly kept in the country but maintained a degree of control over communal property, particularly synagogues.”FILE – This Friday, January 21, 2000, file photo, Youssef Jajati, a Jewish community leader in Syria, points out the Torah holy book preserved in a silver container in Joubar’s Synagogue which dates back to 718 BCE. (AP Photo/ Bassem Tellawi, File)-Even with the departure of much of the remaining Jewish community after 1992, however, the Syrian government continued to preserve sites for its own political purposes. This, the report argues, led to “the protection of Jewish heritage in the major cities of Damascus and Aleppo despite the absence of a Jewish community dedicated to their preservation.”The picture in Iraq, the researchers continue, was somewhat different. “Nearly all Iraqi Jews left Iraq by the mid-1970s and most communal Iraqi Jewish built heritage passed into the control of the Iraqi state, which neglected it, repurposed it, or passed it on to private individuals for their own use or redevelopment.“As a result, most Iraqi heritage has deteriorated significantly, been substantially modified, or been torn down completely,” state the authors.

Iran’s Rouhani condemns Floyd’s ‘brutal’ killing, slams Trump for Bible photo op-The Times of Israel-Officials in Tehran continue to seize on unrest in US in order to turn finger normally pointed at them for Islamic Republic’s brutal crackdowns on US authorities instead-By Agencies-june 4,20-Today, 3:09 pm
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani on Thursday called George Floyd’s killing “brutal” and criticized US President Donald Trump for posing for photos while holding a Bible.Rouhani in a televised speech said Floyd “was killed in the most brutal way.”“We express sympathy toward the American people who are on the streets while harshly condemning the crime,” he said, referring to Floyd’s death after a white police officer was caught on video pressing his knee to Floyd’s neck.Rouhani also made reference to the clearing of peaceful protesters from a park outside the White House with chemical agents and flash bang grenades so that Trump could walk to a church for a photo opportunity.“It is a shame that the president stands with a Bible when he plans to act against his people,” Rouhani said.US President Donald Trump holds a Bible as he visits St. John’s Church near Lafayette Park across from the White House in Washington, June 1, 2020. (AP/Patrick Semansky)-Iranian officials regularly take advantage of protests in the US to criticize the administration, even though Iran itself in November put down nationwide demonstrations by killing hundreds, arresting thousands and disrupting internet access.Iranian state television has repeatedly aired images of the US unrest.The comment came a day after Iran’s supreme leader said Floyd’s killing shows the “true face” of the United States and its oppression of the peoples of the world, including its own.“The fact that a policeman has cold-bloodedly pressed his knee on the throat of a black man until he died and that other policemen watched on without doing anything is nothing knew,” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said in a televised speech.Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei addresses the nation in a televised speech marking the anniversary of the 1989 death of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the leader of the 1979 Islamic Revolution, in Tehran, Iran, June 3, 2020. (Office of the Iranian Supreme Leader via AP)-“It is the true face of America, it’s what it has always done all over the world — in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and other countries, and before that in Vietnam. It is the normal course of action of the United States, it’s the true face of their regime,” Khamenei said.“These are realities that have always been camouflaged or hidden, but they are not new,” he said in a speech on the 31st anniversary of the death of his predecessor, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.Protests sparked by Floyd’s killing by a white police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, have raged across the United States for a week and US President Donald Trump has ordered the military to intervene.The once-in-a-generation unrest has coincided with the world’s deadliest coronavirus outbreak in the United States.US demonstrators, who had gathered to protest the death of George Floyd, begin to run fromtear gas used by police to clear the street near the White House in Washington, Monday, June 1, 2020. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci)-Epidemiologists have voiced concern that the thousands of people protesting at close quarters, coughing violently when hit by police tear gas, will lead to a new upsurge in infections.“Thank God, (US leaders) have already been discredited by their actions — their handling of the coronavirus has discredited and shamed them around the world,” Khamenei said of the 106,000 deaths from COVID-19 already registered in the United States.Iran had itself faced strong criticism from the US when it was reeling from one of the world’s highest COVID-19 death tolls earlier this year.As of Wednesday, Iran’s health ministry declared a total of 8,012 deaths, although that figure has been dismissed by some as under-reported, including by Washington.Tensions between Tehran and Washington escalated sharply in 2018, after Trump unilaterally withdrew the US from a landmark nuclear agreement and reimposed crippling sanctions.

DC paints huge Black Lives Matter mural near White House-[Associated Press]-BEN FOX-June 5, 2020
WASHINGTON (AP) — City workers and activists painted the words Black Lives Matter in enormous bright yellow letters on the street leading to the White House, a highly visible sign of the District of Columbia's embrace of a protest movement that has put it at odds with President Donald Trump.D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser tweeted aerial video of the mural shortly after it was completed Friday. The letters and an image of the city's flag stretch across 16th Street for two blocks, ending just before the church where Trump staged a photo-op after federal officers forcibly cleared a peaceful demonstration to make way for the president and his entourage.“The section of 16th street in front of the White House is now officially ‘Black Lives Matter Plaza,’” Bowser tweeted. A black and white sign was put up to mark the change.Bowser's endorsement of the project follows her verbal clashes with the Trump administration over the response to protests of the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Bowser has complained about the heavy-handed federal response and called for the removal of out-of-state National Guard troops. She says their differences highlight the need for D.C. to be a state and have more control over its internal affairs.n Thursday, as the protests turned peaceful, she ended a curfew imposed after people damaged buildings and broke into businesses over the weekend and Monday.The mayor also tweeted out a letter from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who wrote the president to express alarm that peaceful protesters were being confronted by heavily armed federal agents and officers, many of them with their identities and agencies obscured.

Settler leader says annexation plan like being forced to eat cake at gunpoint-The Times of Israel-Other settler chiefs said calling for his resignation-Day after coming under fire for criticizing Trump, David Elhayani says he has a duty to speak out against what he sees as an ‘existential threat’ posed by the US peace proposal-By TOI staff-Today, 2:44 pm
A top settler leader on Thursday compared the pressure from Washington and Jerusalem to accept the Trump Administration’s peace plan to being force-fed cake on pain of severe bodily harm.Jordan Valley Regional Council head David Elhyani has been leading settler opposition to the US plan, which includes annexation of wide swaths of the West Bank but leaves open the possibility of a Palestinian state.Speaking to Army Radio a day after being rebuked by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for speaking out against the plan, Elhayani said he had no choice but to warn Israel about what he sees as a dangerous proposal.“If someone comes to me with a cake while holding a gun to my head will I just take some cake and then say goodbye?” he said. “My duty is to save us from the existential threats.”Elhayani, who chairs the Yesha umbrella council of settlement mayors, rebuffed accusations that he was being ungrateful to Washington as it offers to recognize sovereignty, telling the station he was concerned not just for the safety of Israeli settlements in the Jordan Valley or other areas of the West Bank, but for the safety of all of Israel’s citizens.His comments have prompted some other settler leaders to call for his resignation, Channel 13 reported, with an internal Whatsapp group of settler chiefs featuring several bitter criticisms of his comments and and accusations that he was “humiliating” the settlers.US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, left, and US ambassador to Israel David Friedman stand next to the dedication plaque at the US embassy in Jerusalem on March 21, 2019. (Jim Young/Pool/AFP)-Elhayani also doubled down on his remarks about President Donald Trump from the day before, in which he told the Haaretz daily that Trump and his senior adviser Jared Kushner have shown through their peace proposal that “they are not friends of the State of Israel.”While he conceded there was no doubt that Trump has “done wonderful things for Israel,” such as moving the US embassy to Jerusalem, recognizing Israeli sovereignty over Golan, and acting against the Iranians, the establishment of a Palestinian state is, Elhayani said, unacceptable.If Trump wants to establish a Palestinian state near the heart of Israel, between Jordan and the Mediterranean Sea, he said, addressing the US president, “then you are not a friend.”Such a state, he stressed, “is a danger to Israel.”Elhayani warned that as soon as Israel extended sovereignty to some areas it would effectively be recognizing the borders of a future Palestinian state and that Washington intended to build on that development to implement the rest of the peace plan.“It is a plan for division [of the territory],” he said.“We must not give any chance for the establishment of a Palestinian state,” he said, and clarified that he was prepared to give up on Israeli sovereignty over some areas of the West Bank if it meant preventing a Palestinian state.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. left, US Ambassador to Israel David Friedman, center, and then-Tourism Minister Yariv Levin during a meeting to discuss mapping extension of Israeli sovereignty to areas of the West Bank, held in the Ariel settlement, February 24, 2020. (David Azagury/US Embassy Jerusalem)-Elhayani’s comments to Haaretz had drawn harsh rebuke from Netanyahu and other right-wing leaders.“I strongly condemn the words of the Yesha Council chairman,” Netanyahu said in a statement that insisted that “President Trump is a great friend of the State of Israel.”“President Trump’s vision for peace includes [a requirement of the Palestinians] to recognize Israel as a Jewish state, Israeli security control throughout the territory west of Jordan, a unified Jerusalem, the disarming of Hamas, ending the right of return [for Palestinian] refugees to enter Israel, and more,” he said. Hamas is a Palestinian terror group that rules in the Gaza Strip.“It is unfortunate that, instead of gratitude, there is someone who is trying to deny this friendship, which has never been better,” Netanyahu added.Netanyahu’s comments echo what one settler leader told The Times of Israel had been the message relayed to him by American officials. He said Washington had been disappointed by the “ingratitude” demonstrated by West Bank mayors campaigning against the peace plan.An Israeli-US mapping committee has for the past several months has been working to delineate the exact parts of the West Bank territory over which Washington is prepared to recognize Israeli sovereignty.Elhayani and nearly a dozen other settler leaders have been insisting on seeing the map before it is finalized in order to influence how the borders will be drawn.They have taken particular issue with the conceptual map introduced at the Trump plan’s January unveiling in Washington, which depicted 15 isolated Israeli settlements as enclaves surrounded by land earmarked for the future Palestinian state.

(AP Photo/Oded Balilty)-Separately Wednesday, another prominent settler leader, who asked not to be named, told The Times of Israel that he and his colleagues are prepared to “blow up” Netanyahu’s plan to annex their towns in the West Bank if the premier persists in refusing to share the joint US-Israeli committee’s map.The US administration is highly unlikely to approve an Israeli move to unilaterally annex parts of the West Bank by the July 1 date envisioned by Netanyahu, a well-placed source told The Times of Israel on Wednesday.In fact, it could take weeks and possibly months before the joint US-Israel mapping committee concludes its work, which the White House has declared a precondition that must be met before it would give a green light for annexation, the source said.
Israeli pilgrims visit Nablus shrine despite end of PA security cooperation-The Times of Israel-No irregular incidents reported as 150 people take part in monthly prayer service at Joseph’s Tomb inside Palestinian-controlled area-By TOI staff-june 4,20-Today, 11:29 am
Some 150 Israelis overnight Wednesday visited Joseph’s Tomb, a holy site located inside an area of the West Bank under full Palestinian control, despite the Palestinian Authority declaring last month that it was ending all security cooperation with Israel.The pilgrims were escorted, as usual, by Israeli soldiers, the military said. The Israel Defense Forces said there were “no irregular incidents” during the visit and prayer service, the first held there since February.There were, however, light clashes nearby between Palestinian rioters, who threw rocks, and IDF troops, who responded with less lethal riot dispersal weapons.Palestinian security forces who protect the compound, just outside Nablus, left the site before the Israeli group arrived and then returned ten minutes after they had gone, the Ynet website reported. They arrived just in time to prevent a group of Palestinians from setting fire to the building, the report said.Near monthly visits to the tomb by Israelis are permitted by the IDF and are carried out under heavy armed guard.The visit was the first since the end of Israel’s strict coronavirus restrictions and the first since Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas announced he was ending security cooperation with Israel, though questions have arisen over the extent to which coordination has actually been frozen.PA President Mahmoud Abbas heads a leadership meeting at his headquarters, in the West Bank city of Ramallah, May 19, 2020. (Alaa Badarneh/Pool via AP)On May 21, Abbas declared that the PA was “absolved” of all agreements and understandings with Israel and the US. Abbas said his statement was in response to repeated Israeli violations of those agreements, including the planned unilateral annexation of parts of the West Bank by Israel, and that his security forces were cutting ties with the Israeli military.The claim has since proven to be overstated, as some degree of coordination has continued despite the dramatic announcement, though to a lesser extent than normal.Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has insisted he will go ahead with plans to extend Israeli sovereignty to settlements and the Jordan Valley — some 30 percent of the West Bank — from July 1.The move would be coordinated with the United States, in accordance with a Middle East plan US President Donald Trump unveiled in January, which endorsed extending Israeli sovereignty over these parts of the West Bank.However, there are signs a short delay might be in the offing.US approval depends on the completion of a mapping process being carried out by a joint Israeli-US team, and a source has told The Times of Israel that it is “highly unlikely” that the process will be done by July 1. The source said it could be delayed by weeks or even months.In addition, European countries, as well as Arab nations with which Israel does not have formal ties, have also warned Israel against the consequences of annexation.The Palestinians have rejected the entire Trump peace proposal.Thousands of religious Jews visit the Joseph’s Tomb holy site in the West Bank city of Nablus on September 17, 2018.

The IDF bars Israeli citizens from entering Area A without prior authorization.The site is venerated by Jews, Christians and Muslims, and has often been a flashpoint for sectarian violence. Jewish pilgrims are usually only allowed to visit the tomb once a month under heavy armed guard. During these visits, Palestinians routinely throw rocks at the troops, and sometimes attack them with Molotov cocktails and gunfire.Visits to the site, which in the past have drawn over 1,000 pilgrims, were halted after February due to lockdown measures banning public gatherings during the coronavirus pandemic. As infection rates dwindled, many restrictions have lifted.Screenshot from the fire started by Palestinian rioters at Joseph’s Tomb in Nablus, in the West Bank, on October 16, 2015.In 2015 a large group of Palestinians set fire to the compound containing Joseph’s Tomb. Palestinian Authority security forces dispersed the hundred-strong crowd and managed to douse the fire at the tomb, believed to contain the remains of the biblical patriarch Joseph, Hebrew media reported at the time.There have been other incidents of arson and vandalism at the site, including major damage by Palestinian rioters in 2000.Earlier this week, an Israeli court convicted a former Palestinian police officer for opening fire in 2011 on a group of Israelis who had visited the site without coordination. One man was killed.Judah Ari Gross contributed to this report.

Serbia adopts anti-Semitism definition including anti-Israel hate-The Times of Israel-Education Ministry website says International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition will provide a practical guide for identifying and collecting data on anti-Semitic incidents-By Cnaan Liphshiz-june 5,20-Today, 11:26 am
JTA — The Education Ministry of Serbia has added to its website a definition of anti-Semitism that includes some examples of hatred against Israel.The ministry uploaded the definition of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, or IHRA, to the site on April 30.On Monday, the Israeli Embassy in Belgrade offered its congratulations on Twitter to the Serbian government “for adopting the IHRA definition.”Serbia is a close ally of Russia, which has not adopted the definition.Eleven countries have been said to adopt the definition.In France, the adoption was put to a vote, which was passed in December. In the United Kingdom, the government announced in 2016 that it was adopting the measure.The definition states that some forms of vitriol against Israel, including comparing it to Nazi Germany and denying the Jewish people’s right to self determination, are examples of anti-Semitism, though criticizing Israel’s policies is not.“The purpose of this document is to provide a practical guide for identifying and collecting data on anti-Semitic incidents,” the Serbian Education Ministry’s website reads.Pro-Palestinian activists oppose the IHRA definition, claiming it prevents criticism of Israel’s policies or unduly limits free speech.The definition features mostly examples of anti-Semitic behaviors unconnected to Israel, such as calling to harm Jews or denying the Holocaust.Manifestations of anti-Semitism, the new definition reads, “might include the targeting of the State of Israel, conceived as a Jewish collectivity,” though “criticism of Israel similar to that leveled against any other country cannot be regarded as anti-Semitic.”

Iraq’s Jewish sites almost all ruined beyond repair, new heritage report finds-The Times of Israel-Urgent relief could save 4 of Iraq's most vital Jewish sites-More than half sites in Syria also in terrible condition or worse; neglect and redevelopment blamed, after repression and emigration decimated Jewish life in the 2 countries-By Robert Philpot-june 5,20-Today, 4:08 pm
The location and condition of over 350 Jewish heritage sites in Iraq and Syria have been identified by a major new research project. But most of them are said to be ruined or nearly so, often because of neglect or redevelopment work.The 18-month study conducted by the Jewish Cultural Heritage Initiative (JCHI) catalogues and assesses sites from antiquity to the present day in once-vibrant centers of Jewish life in the Middle East.But an accompanying report published this month warns that nearly 90 percent of the sites in Iraq – and more than half of those in Syria – are beyond repair or in a very bad condition.It also identifies four Iraqi sites where it believes “emergency relief” could be critical to preserving them. They include the last functioning synagogue in the country and a Baghdad cemetery where the remains of Jews who were publicly hanged in the 1960s on charges of spying for Israel are buried.The JCHI is a collaboration between the London-based Foundation for Jewish Heritage and the American Schools of Oriental Research. The study was led by Dr. Darren Ashby and Dr. Susan Penacho of the US institution’s Cultural Heritage Initiatives. The research team used desk-based, satellite and on-the-ground assessments.Jewish community life in Iraq and Syria – which stretched back 2,600 years to the time of Babylon – was decimated by harsh repression and emigration in the second half of the 20th century, following the establishment of the State of Israel.However, the JCHI study argues that “a significant physical heritage remains.”Mosul, Iraq, synagogue as seen in a France 24 report from April 2019. (Youtube still)-The condition of the sites varies sharply between Iraq and Syria. In Iraq, researchers gave 89% of sites its lowest preservation rating of “no return” or determined that nothing definite could be found on its present state. The researchers believe the overwhelming majority of heritage sites classified as “no information” are likely to be in a very bad condition or beyond repair.In Syria, 53% of sites are tagged as “no return” or “no information.”Of the 11% confirmed as still standing in Iraq, nine sites are categorized as “poor” and 12% as “very bad”, the researchers say. Ten sites are listed as in a “fair” or “good” condition.”In Syria, 27 sites are tagged as being in a “fair” of “good” condition, while six are categorized as “poor” or “very bad.”In all, 68 Iraqi sites are deemed as “no return” and no information was available for 198 sites. In Syria, the respective figures were 32 sites and six sites.An undated image of Al-Bandara Synagogue or Central Synagogue of Aleppo, Syria. (public domain via Wikipedia)-“A distinct difference in preservation exists between Iraq and Syria,” argues the report. It notes that the 10 Iraq sites rated as “good” or “fair” represent “roughly a third the number of Syrian sites, despite the overall size of the Iraqi corpus being over three times the size of the Syrian one.”But, across both countries, says the report, “most of the heritage from the 19th and 20th centuries is in very bad condition or beyond repair, primarily due to neglect and urban redevelopment.”Researchers say that the project was “undertaken in a challenging environment” and admit that it does not represent “a fully comprehensive picture.” However, the 368 sites in the JCHI database, suggests the report, “represent a cross-section of Jewish built heritage in Iraq and Syria from the diaspora until the present day.”“The database includes the major buildings and settlements in both countries alongside a number of additional sites of regional and local significance,” it says.“At a time when there is so much attention on saving heritage in danger across the Middle East, this unique research has shone a light on a forgotten aspect – the remarkable ancient Jewish heritage of the region,” Michael Mail, chief executive of the Foundation for Jewish Heritage, suggested in a press statement.The Jewish community made a profound contribution and we need to ensure its heritage, and this story, is not erased“The Jewish community made a profound contribution and we need to ensure its heritage, and this story, is not erased,” Mail added.The research lists 27 sites in both Iraq and Syria which are endangered because they are in a “poor” or “very bad” condition.Among the sites are two in Syria – the Bandara Synagogue in Aleppo and the Synagogue of the Prophet Elijah in Damascus – and one in Iraq – The Shrine of the Prophet Ezekiel in Al-Kifl – which researchers assess to be internationally significant. A further seven are listed as nationally significant and four regionally significant.The project identifies four sites as priority candidates for “emergency relief.” All are in Iraq due to the continuing Syrian civil war. In the case of each, the JCHI says, “urgent intervention could substantially improve their condition.”In this 1998 file photo, Tawfiq Safeer prepares for prayer in the synagogue of Baghdad, Saturday, March 21, 1998. (AP Photo/Jassim Mohammed)-The four sites are led by the last surviving functioning synagogue in Iraq, the Meir Tweig Synagogue in Baghdad. The synagogue, says the report, is also home to material from other synagogues and communal buildings that are now closed.The Jewish community in Iraq is now believed to number as few as 10, mostly elderly, people. Through intermediaries in Iraq, the JCHI was able to make contact with members of the Jewish community in Baghdad.The Meir Tweig Synagogue in Baghdad, seen behind a wall in Baghdad, Iraq on August 7, 2007. (AP Photo/Hadi Mizban)-Work on the synagogue, which is deemed to be in a “fair” condition, is “highly viable,” researchers believe.“The site is under the control of the Jewish community, which already has a list of preferred contractors that it has worked with on other projects,” the report says. But, it adds, “the main concern for the Jewish community is visibility. They do not want to draw attention to the synagogue’s location.”In this 1969 file photo: Sabah Haim and David Hazaquiel, both Jewish businessmen, after they had been hanged in Baghad, Iraq, on January 27, 1969, for being Israeli spies. (AP)-The three other priority sites selected by the JCHI include the Al-Habibiyah Jewish Cemetery in Baghdad. Established during the early 20th century, it has been the main location for Jewish burial in the city. Many local Jewish notables are interred there, including Jews who were publicly hanged in Baghdad in January 1969 for allegedly spying for Israel.The report says the cemetery is in a worse condition than the Meir Tweig synagogue. “The interior of the walled property is overgrown with vegetation in multiple places and the space is used as a dumping ground for trash by people on the adjacent properties. Many of the graves are in poor condition,” it notes.In northern Iraq, the research highlights two candidates for urgent work in an area of the country where significant post-conflict reconstruction work is underway.Mosul, Iraq, synagogue as seen in a France 24 report from April 2019. (Youtube still)-+Built in 1902, the Sasson Synagogue in Mosul was the main synagogue in the city during the 20th century thanks to its central location in the Jewish Quarter. Researchers believe that, though it is in a “very bad” condition, it is nonetheless the best-preserved Jewish heritage in Mosul.“The roof of the synagogue has collapsed in multiple places, exposing the interior decoration, including wall paintings, to weathering and increasing the risk that the rest of the standing architecture will fall,” write the researchers. “The property has also filled with trash and debris deposited in the building over the past decades. Further, looters have targeted the site, removing some Jewish cultural property.” ..

(2 × 1.2 m), which is also reduced by 0.50 m from the wall of the exterior facade and has an iron door with two modern-made signs.In the middle of the 1970s, after the last Jews of Mosul left, it has occupied by a neighbor, in the mid-1980s and with a decision by the Revolutionary Command Council to liquidate the property of Iraq's absentee Jews, the school and the synagogue were sold to the family it occupies and it's a private propety now.Gilgamesh Center for Antiquities and Heritage Protect-Forty-five kilometers (28 miles) north of Mosul lies the Shrine of the Prophet Nahum in the town of in al-Qosh in Iraq. It dates back to at least the 12th century CE and was an important pilgrimage site for the Jewish community of both Mosul and the surrounding region, especially during Shavuot.The site consists of a central synagogue with the prophet’s tomb and a series of subsidiary buildings arranged around a courtyard.Tomb of the Jewish Prophet Nahum in Al-qosh, Iraq. (Chaldean, CC-BY-SA, via wikipedia)-Local Christians attempted to maintain the shrine after the departure of the Jewish community and it has also been the focus of international preservation efforts over the past decade. It is now deemed to be in a “poor” condition. However, after stabilization work was conducted in late 2017, a restoration project led by the Alliance for the Restoration of Cultural Heritage is commencing. It is supported financially by the US government, the Kurdish regional government and private donors.The researchers believe that, while many factors account for the higher levels of preservation in Syria than Iraq, “two interconnected factors stand out: government policy towards the Jewish population and the timing of Jewish emigration from the two countries.”In both Syria and Iraq, anti-Semitic violence and state repression provoked large-scale Jewish emigration following the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948.FILE – This Sunday, April 20, 2008, file photo, Syrian Jews celebrate Passover at the al-Firenj Synagogue in downtown Damascus, Syria. (AP Photo/Bassem Tellawi, File).For those Jews who remained in Syria “the level of repression fluctuated over time” and, by the mid-1970s, they were “largely left to manage their own religious, social and economic affairs.” However, tight restrictions on Jewish emigration were in place until the early 1990s.In Iraq, emigration was similarly restricted and banned altogether in 1952. But further emigration was allowed some 20 years earlier than in Syria, with much of the remaining Jewish community leaving the country in the early 1970s.“The different levels of repression and timelines of community departure impacted the preservation of Jewish built heritage,” says the report. “In Syria, a portion of the community was forcibly kept in the country but maintained a degree of control over communal property, particularly synagogues.”FILE – This Friday, January 21, 2000, file photo, Youssef Jajati, a Jewish community leader in Syria, points out the Torah holy book preserved in a silver container in Joubar’s Synagogue which dates back to 718 BCE. (AP Photo/ Bassem Tellawi, File)-Even with the departure of much of the remaining Jewish community after 1992, however, the Syrian government continued to preserve sites for its own political purposes. This, the report argues, led to “the protection of Jewish heritage in the major cities of Damascus and Aleppo despite the absence of a Jewish community dedicated to their preservation.”The picture in Iraq, the researchers continue, was somewhat different. “Nearly all Iraqi Jews left Iraq by the mid-1970s and most communal Iraqi Jewish built heritage passed into the control of the Iraqi state, which neglected it, repurposed it, or passed it on to private individuals for their own use or redevelopment.“As a result, most Iraqi heritage has deteriorated significantly, been substantially modified, or been torn down completely,” state the authors.
